ASOS Curve Review: My First ASOS Order


Hello Peeps,

First, I'd like to say hello and thank you to all of my new followers! I love reading your comments :) We need just 4 more followers, and I can host the first Lola-Rocks giveaway!

What attracted me to ASOS was the fact that they do not discriminate-they have "straight" sizes and plus sizes, with many of the same items in both size ranges. I placed my first ASOS Curve order a week or two ago, and my package arrived today! Let me say that I love everything that I ordered. I wear a US 20, and I ordered a UK 22 (which is supposed to be a US 18,but I went by the measurements). Most everything fit fine with plenty of room. Check out my picks below
:


I fell in love with this zipper top the moment I laid eyes on it! It is sheer, slouchy, and fabulous. I think this will look great with leggings and skinnys for the Fall, and my cropped leggings and distressed denim skirt for Summer. *Note-This top is completely sheer, so you will need a cami underneath.

I also purchased this legging with attached mini skirt. It is beautifully made, but a bit big and long in the legs for me. But then again, I have the shortest duck legs imaginable, so that is most likely the issue. This look is surprisingly flattering, so don't be afraid to try it! Just go one or two sizes down :)

I ordered this sweater in both the oatmeal and in black. It is FABULOUS! It runs true to size, is beautifully made, and will be great for the Nashville Fall and Winter. I can't wait to wear this with a long, thin layering top, skinnys, and my boots. AWESOME!

Most of these looks are too hot for 100 degree weather, so you won't see too many ASOS Fashion Nuggets until Fall. I am going to try and rock the zipper top and see how it goes, hopefully sometime this week. I did place another ASOS order with some more lightweight items, and I can't wait to see how those work!

Hope you all have a fabulous day!

  4. You totally can Cristal! Just go by the measurements they provide on the size chart, not what size they say it is. I could have gone even one more size down in most of it! What an ego boost that was, lol.
